Vintage Amp with Altecs

[voice of the theater]

Cool history to this vintage amp--see Ebay description...

1968 "Mosrite of California" Model 1000 Amplifier. 2x15" Altec 418B Speakers.

[Phil-G]

the liner notes make well worth read.

Semi Mosely traced the shape of a Fender Stratocaster in reverse to arrive at the shape of his signature electric guitar. He did some other off-the-chart stuff also, like the rather strange Dobro resonator guitars he made while he owned that trademark. I bought one of his Ventures model electrics for $50 in a pawn shop auction in the early 1970s. The current owner has assured me that if he ever parts with it, he will sell it back to me... for $50 even though it is worth a couple grand! Semi's daughter still builds the instruments, both domestically and overseas, with admirable enthusiasm.

Cool history / nice she's carrying on the tradition...
